Left Bank Books in St. Louis (No relation.)Again, I don't have pictures of the outside of the shop, but I do have pics of Kris Kleindienst thanking D.A. Powell for his poetry reading at the new downtown store...

and Alison Bechdel reading at the Central West End store...

and staff members posing as famous LGBT writers, marching in last summer's Pride Parade...

I also credit Left Bank with being the root cause of my last 6 years of domestic happiness, but, really, it wouldn't have been the same without the bar, the eclipse, and the really annoyingly bad music.

I enjoyed seeing familiar faces from Katatomic Labs and TwIsTeD. I enjoyed the people watching. The event offered me loud music and free drinks on a Friday night, so really, I can't think of much to complain about.

I didn't really know what to expect going into this event. Three days later and I'm still not sure. That's probably just my cold talking...
